10. "Cassandra Gemini VI" – 3:48
11. "Cassandra Gemini VII" – 0:48
12. "Cassandra Gemini VIII" – 0:53
There are those that would claim that De-loused is their best, or that this is boring or the ambiance is overdone. Those people are wrong. This is the best thing The Mars Volta have ever and will ever put out, as well as a brilliant slab of neo-prog. Completely amazing from beginning to end. Mindblowing, even.
From Wiki: "Because of disputes with Universal Records, 'Cassandra Gemini' was arbitrarily split into eight tracks on the CD version, taking up tracks 5 through 12, since the band would otherwise only be paid an EP's wages for a 5 track album."
